- In statistics, samples are drawn from a population in a data-generating process (DGP). Standard errors measure the uncertainty in estimates of population parameters. In science, evidence is generated to test hypotheses in an evidence-generating process (EGP). We claim that EGP variation across researchers adds uncertainty-nonstandard errors (NSEs). We study NSEs by letting 164 teams test the same hypotheses on the same data. NSEs turn out to be sizable, but smaller for more reproducible or higher rated research. Adding peer-review stages reduces NSEs. We further find that this type of uncertainty is underestimated by participants.

- (Abstracted from N Engl J Med 2023;388(23):2132-2144) Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common pregnancy complication. It is associated with adverse outcomes, including preeclampsia, obstetrical intervention, large-for-gestational-age neonates, shoulder dystocia, birth trauma, and neonatal hypoglycemia. Cohort studies have found that women with hyperglycemia before 20 weeks of gestation are more likely to experience accelerated fetal growth by 24 to 28 weeks than those diagnosed with GDM later in pregnancy.

Identification of excited states in doubly odd [Formula Presented]Sb : Smooth band termination
- 1997

Ingår i: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813. ; 55:5, s. 2127-2131

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Excited states in [Formula Presented]Sb have been identified for the first time in a series of [Formula Presented]-spectroscopy experiments using both thin and backed targets, including neutron-fold and recoil-mass measurements to provide unambiguous channel identification. The three decoupled intruder bands observed in [Formula Presented]Sb are based upon configurations involving 2p-2h excitations across the [Formula Presented] shell gap and show the features of smooth band termination. The yrast intruder band, which has been connected to the low-spin levels, is tentatively identified up to its predicted termination at [Formula Presented]. Excellent agreement with configuration-dependent cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations is obtained for the high-spin states near termination.

- The Doppler shift attenuation method has been used to determine the transition quadrupole moment of a triaxial band belonging to the gamma-soft nucleus, Ce-133. Doppler broadened lineshape (DBLS) analysis has revealed the magnitude of the Q(t) value to be similar to 2.4 eb. This contribution provides new information of (i) the transition quadrupole moment of this band (ii) the lifetimes of in-band and sidefeeding transitions and (iii) the relative deformations of coexisting nuclear shapes.

- Lifetimes of states within a triaxial band belonging to;the gamma-soft nucleus Ce-133 have been determined through a Doppler-broadened line shape analysis. A value, Q(t)approximate to 2.2 eb, has been found for the transition quadrupole moment which is considerably smaller than that of superdeformed structures (Q(t)approximate to 7.4 e b) in this mass region. The results are discussed in terms of deformation self-consistent calculations based on the total Routhian surface formalism. [S0556-2813(98)01912-8].

- Four highly deformed structures in the odd-odd nucleus 13661Pm75 were observed via the 105Pd(35Cl,2p2n) reaction at 180 and 173 MeV using the GAMMASPHERE γ-ray spectrometer and the Microball charged-particle detector array. Quadrupole moment measurements were performed on all of the bands. In contrast to lighter odd-Ζ Pm and Pr nuclei, bands based on the g9/2[404]9/2 proton orbital were not observed. Instead, the four observed sequences are assigned as a coupling of an i13/2 neutron with the low-Ω h11/2 and mixed d5/2g7/2 orbitals. Comparisons with neighboring highly deformed structures are discussed and cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations for 136Pm are presented.

Ingår i: Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics. - 0556-2813. ; 61:4
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Excited states have been identified in the very neutron-deficient 119Ba nucleus. Two bands have been observed, which are likely to be based on h11/2 and (g7/2d5/2) neutron orbitals. Despite this being the first observation of excited states in 119Ba, the bands extend to (75/2)ℏ and (79/2)ℏ, respectively. The bands have been assigned to 119Ba using gamma-recoil and gamma-x-ray coincidences. Several quasiparticle alignments have been identified, involving neutron (h11/2)2 and proton (h11/2)2 aligned configurations. Furthermore, the bands show features which are reasonably consistent with smooth band termination at high spin. Theoretical results for 119Ba are discussed within the framework of cranked Woods-Saxon and Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- OBJECTIVE: To identify factors associated with neonatal respiratory distress (NRD) in early Gestational diabetes mellitus (eGDM).DESIGN: Nested case-control analysis of the TOBOGM trial.SETTING: Seventeen hospitals: Australia, Sweden, Austria and India. POPULATION: Pregnant women, <20 weeks' gestation, singleton, GDM risk factors.METHODS: Women with GDM risk factors completed an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) before 20 weeks: those with eGDM (WHO-2013 criteria) were randomised to immediate or deferred GDM treatment. Logistic regression compared pregnancies with/without NRD, and in pregnancies with NRD, those with/without high-dependency nursery admission for ≤24 h with those admitted for >24 h. Comparisons were adjusted for age, pre-pregnancy body mass index, ethnicity, smoking, primigravity, education and site. Adjusted odds ratios (95% CI) are reported.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: NRD definition: ≥4 h of respiratory support (supplemental oxygen or supported ventilation) postpartum. Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS): Supported ventilation and ≥24 h nursery stay.RESULTS: Ninety-nine (12.5%) of 793 infants had NRD; incidence halved (0.50, 0.31-0.79) if GDM treatment was started early. NRD was associated with Caesarean section (2.31, 1.42-3.76), large for gestational age (LGA) (1.83, 1.09-3.08) and shorter gestation (0.95, 0.93-0.97 per day longer). Among NRD infants, >24 h nursery-stay was associated with higher OGTT 1-h glucose (1.38, 1.08-1.76 per mmol/L). Fifteen (2.0%) infants had RDS.CONCLUSIONS: Identifying and treating eGDM reduces NRD risk. NRD is more likely with Caesarean section, LGA and shorter gestation. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms behind this eGDM complication and any long-term effects.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- OBJECTIVE: In most gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) studies, cohorts have included women combined into study populations without regard to whether hyperglycemia was present earlier in pregnancy. In this study we sought to compare perinatal outcomes between groups: women with early GDM (EGDM group: diagnosis before 20 weeks but no treatment until 24-28 weeks if GDM still present), with late GDM (LGDM group: present only at 24-28 weeks), and with normoglycemia at 24-28 weeks (control subjects).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This is a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled treatment trial where we studied, among women with risk factors, early (<20 weeks' gestation) GDM defined according to World Health Organization 2013 criteria. Those receiving early treatment for GDM treatment were excluded. GDM was treated if present at 24-28 weeks. The primary outcome was a composite of birth before 37 weeks' gestation, birth weight ≥4,500 g, birth trauma, neonatal respiratory distress, phototherapy, stillbirth/neonatal death, and shoulder dystocia. Comparisons included adjustment for age, ethnicity, BMI, site, smoking, primigravity, and education.RESULTS: Women with EGDM (n = 254) and LGDM (n = 467) had shorter pregnancy duration than control subjects (n = 2,339). BMI was lowest with LGDM. The composite was increased with EGDM (odds ratio [OR] 1.59, 95% CI 1.18-2.12)) but not LGDM (OR 1.19, 95% CI 0.94-1.50). Induction of labor was higher in both GDM groups. In comparisons with control subjects there were higher birth centile, higher preterm birth rate, and higher rate of neonatal jaundice for the EGDM group (but not the LGDM group). The greatest need for insulin and/or metformin was with EGDM.CONCLUSIONS: Adverse perinatal outcomes were increased with EGDM despite treatment from 24-28 weeks' gestation, suggesting the need to initiate treatment early, and more aggressively, to reduce the effects of exposure to the more severe maternal hyperglycemia from early pregnancy.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- OBJECTIVE: To compare pregnancy outcomes among women with a normal oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) before 20 weeks' gestation (early) and at 24-28 weeks' gestation (late) (no gestational diabetes mellitus, or No-GDM), those with early GDM randomized to observation with a subsequent normal OGTT (GDM-Regression), and those with GDM on both occasions (GDM-Maintained).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Women at <20 weeks' gestation with GDM risk factors who were recruited for a randomized controlled early GDM treatment trial were included. Women with treated early GDM and late GDM (according to the World Health Organization's 2013 criteria) were excluded from this analysis. Logistic regression compared pregnancy outcomes.RESULTS: GDM-Regression (n = 121) group risk factor profiles and OGTT results generally fell between the No-GDM (n = 2,218) and GDM-Maintained (n = 254) groups, with adjusted incidences of pregnancy complications similar between the GDM-Regression and No-GDM groups.CONCLUSIONS: Women with early GDM but normal OGTT at 24-28 weeks' gestation had pregnancy outcomes that were similar to those of individuals without GDM. Identifying early GDM likely to regress would allow treatment to be avoided.

- OBJECTIVE: We evaluated associations between early-pregnancy oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) glucose and complications in the Treatment of Booking Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (TOBOGM) cohort to inform prognostic OGTT thresholds. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Individuals with risk factors for hyperglycemia were recruited for an international, multicenter, randomized controlled gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) (World Health Organization 2013 criteria) treatment trial. A 2-h 75-g OGTT was performed at <20 weeks' gestation. Individuals with early treated hyperglycemia in pregnancy were excluded from the primary analysis. Early OGTT glucose concentrations were analyzed continuously and in glycemic categories (normal, low band, and high band).RESULTS: Overall, 3,645 individuals had an OGTT at (mean ± SD) 15.6 ± 2.5 weeks. For each 1-SD increase in fasting, 1-h, and 2-h glucose values, there were continuous positive associations with late GDM: adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 2.04 (95% CI 1.82-2.27), 3.05 (2.72-3.43), and 2.21 (1.99-2.45), respectively. There were continuous positive associations between 1-h and 2-h glucose and the perinatal composite (birth <37 + 0 weeks, birth trauma, birth weight ≥4,500 g, respiratory distress, phototherapy requirement, stillbirth/neonatal death, and shoulder dystocia), with aOR 1.15 (95% CI 1.04-1.26) and 1.14 (1.04-1.25), respectively, and with large-for-gestational-age offspring, with aOR 1.18 (1.06-1.31) and 1.26 (1.01-1.25), respectively. Significant associations were also observed between 1-h glucose and cesarean section and between fasting and 2-h glucose and neonatal hypoglycemia. In categorical analysis, only the high-band 1-h glucose (≥10.6 mmol/L [191 mg/dL]) predicted the perinatal composite.CONCLUSIONS: There is a continuous positive association between early-pregnancy OGTT glucose and complications. In individuals with hyperglycemia risk factors, only the high-glycemic-band 1-h glucose corresponded to increased risk of major perinatal complications.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: A recently undertaken multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) "Treatment Of BOoking Gestational diabetes Mellitus" (TOBOGM: 2017-2022) found that the diagnosis and treatment of pregnant women with early gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) improved pregnancy outcomes. Based on data from the trial, this study aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment of early GDM (from <20 weeks') among women with risk factors for hyperglycemia in pregnancy compared with usual care (no treatment until 24-28 weeks') from a healthcare perspective.METHODS: Participants' healthcare resource utilization data were collected from their self-reported questionnaires and hospital records, and valued using the unit costs obtained from standard Australian national sources. Costs were reported in US dollars ($) using the purchasing power parity (PPP) estimates to facilitate comparison of costs across countries. Intention-to-treat (ITT) principle was followed. Missing cost data were replaced using multiple imputations. Bootstrapping method was used to estimate the uncertainty around mean cost difference and cost-effectiveness results. Bootstrapped cost-effect pairs were used to plot the cost-effectiveness (CE) plane and cost-effectiveness acceptability curve (CEAC).FINDINGS: Diagnosis and treatment of early GDM was more effective and tended to be less costly, i.e., dominant (cost-saving) [-5.6% composite adverse pregnancy outcome (95% CI: -10.1%, -1.2%), -$1373 (95% CI: -$3,749, $642)] compared with usual care. Our findings were confirmed by both the CE plane (88% of the bootstrapped cost-effect pairs fall in the south-west quadrant), and CEAC (the probability of the intervention being cost-effective ranged from 84% at a willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold value of $10,000-99% at a WTP threshold value of $100,000 per composite adverse pregnancy outcome prevented). Sub-group analyses demonstrated that diagnosis and treatment of early GDM among women in the higher glycemic range (fasting blood glucose 95-109 mg/dl [5.3-6.0 mmol/L], 1-h blood glucose ≥191 mg/dl [10.6 mmol/L] and/or 2-h blood glucose 162-199 mg/dl [9.0-11.0 mmol/L]) was more effective and less costly (dominant) [-7.8% composite adverse pregnancy outcome (95% CI: -14.6%, -0.9%), -$2795 (95% CI: -$6,638, -$533)]; the intervention was more effective and tended to be less costly [-8.9% composite adverse pregnancy outcome (95% CI: -15.1%, -2.6%), -$5548 (95% CI: -$16,740, $1547)] among women diagnosed before 14 weeks' gestation as well. INTERPRETATION: Our findings highlight the potential health and economic benefits from the diagnosis and treatment of early GDM among women with risk factors for hyperglycemia in pregnancy and supports its implementation. Long-term follow-up studies are recommended as a key future area of research to assess the potential long-term health benefits and economic consequences of the intervention.

Impact of Center Experience on Patient Radiation Exposure During Transradial Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Intervention : A Patient-Level, International, Collaborative, Multi-Center Analysis
- 2016

Ingår i: Journal of the American Heart Association. - Hoboken, USA : Wiley-Blackwell. - 2047-9980. ; 5:6
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: The adoption of the transradial (TR) approach over the traditional transfemoral (TF) approach has been hampered by concerns of increased radiation exposure-a subject of considerable debate within the field. We performed a patient-level, multi-center analysis to definitively address the impact of TR access on radiation exposure.Methods and Results: Overall, 10 centers were included from 6 countries-Canada (2 centers), United Kingdom (2), Germany (2), Sweden (2), Hungary (1), and The Netherlands (1). We compared the radiation exposure of TR versus TF access using measured dose-area product (DAP). To account for local variations in equipment and exposure, standardized TR:TF DAP ratios were constructed per center with procedures separated by coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Among 57 326 procedures, we demonstrated increased radiation exposure with the TR versus TF approach, particularly in the CA cohort across all centers (weighted-average ratios: CA, 1.15; PCI, 1.05). However, this was mitigated by increasing TR experience in the PCI cohort across all centers (r=-0.8; P=0.005). Over time, as a center transitioned to increasing TR experience (r=0.9; P=0.001), a concomitant decrease in radiation exposure occurred (r=-0.8; P=0.006). Ultimately, when a center's balance of TR to TF procedures approaches 50%, the resultant radiation exposure was equivalent.Conclusions: The TR approach is associated with a modest increase in patient radiation exposure. However, this increase is eliminated when the TR and TF approaches are used with equal frequency-a guiding principle for centers adopting the TR approach.

- BACKGROUND: Whether treatment of gestational diabetes before 20 weeks' gestation improves maternal and infant health is unclear.METHODS: We randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, women between 4 weeks' and 19 weeks 6 days' gestation who had a risk factor for hyperglycemia and a diagnosis of gestational diabetes (World Health Organization 2013 criteria) to receive immediate treatment for gestational diabetes or deferred or no treatment, depending on the results of a repeat oral glucose-tolerance test [OGTT] at 24 to 28 weeks' gestation (control). The trial included three primary outcomes: a composite of adverse neonatal outcomes (birth at <37 weeks' gestation, birth trauma, birth weight of ≥4500 g, respiratory distress, phototherapy, stillbirth or neonatal death, or shoulder dystocia), pregnancy-related hypertension (preeclampsia, eclampsia, or gestational hypertension), and neonatal lean body mass.RESULTS: A total of 802 women underwent randomization; 406 were assigned to the immediate-treatment group and 396 to the control group; follow-up data were available for 793 women (98.9%). An initial OGTT was performed at a mean (±SD) gestation of 15.6±2.5 weeks. An adverse neonatal outcome event occurred in 94 of 378 women (24.9%) in the immediate-treatment group and in 113 of 370 women (30.5%) in the control group (adjusted risk difference, -5.6 percentage points; 95% confidence interval [CI], -10.1 to -1.2). Pregnancy-related hypertension occurred in 40 of 378 women (10.6%) in the immediate-treatment group and in 37 of 372 women (9.9%) in the control group (adjusted risk difference, 0.7 percentage points; 95% CI, -1.6 to 2.9). The mean neonatal lean body mass was 2.86 g in the immediate-treatment group and 2.91 g in the control group (adjusted mean difference, -0.04 g; 95% CI, -0.09 to 0.02). No between-group differences were observed with respect to serious adverse events associated with screening and treatment.CONCLUSIONS: Immediate treatment of gestational diabetes before 20 weeks' gestation led to a modestly lower incidence of a composite of adverse neonatal outcomes than no immediate treatment; no material differences were observed for pregnancy-related hypertension or neonatal lean body mass.

- We report the first experimental measurements and theoretical calculations for the hyperfine splitting of the 3d(5) 4s ground state of Mn II. The hyperfine structure constants were determined using Fourier transform spectroscopy with a hollow cathode discharge lamp. The uncertainties in the magnetic dipole constants, A, are between 3 x 10(-4) and 5 x 10(-4) cm(-1). Extensive configuration interaction calculations of the hyperfine splitting of the a(7)S(3) ground state have been carried out to compare with the experimental measurements. In addition, we give wavelengths for three resonant transitions to the ground state of Mn II, accurate to a few parts in 10(8). These wavelengths are of interest in astrophysical applications such as studies of the time variation of the fine structure constant.

- We use both the civ3 and mchf codes to calculate oscillator strengths of allowed and intercombination lines in the 3s(2) 3p-3s3p(2) multiplets. Valence, core-valence and some core-core correlation effects are included. The two approaches give results in excellent agreement. Core effects are particularly important for the intercombination lines, though relatively minor for allowed transitions. We obtain a branching ratio of 1.42 with an estimated accuracy of 0.02 for the transitions, compared with an experimental value of 1.12+/-0.1. The A -values of the intercombination lines are substantially different from those of previous calculations.

- We present the FERRUM Project, an international collaboration aiming at a production and evaluation of oscillator strengths (transition probabilities) of selected spectral lines of singly ionized iron group elements, that are of astrophysical relevance. The results obtained include measurements and calculations of permitted and forbidden lines of Fe II. The data have been applied to both emission and absorption lines in astrophysical spectra. We make comparisons between experimental, theoretical and astrophysical f-values. We give a general review of the various measurements, and discuss the UV8 multiplet of Fe II around 1610 Šin detail.

- We report on experimental branching fractions (BFs) for 19 transitions from the three 3d 5( 6S)4s4p( 3P) y6P levels in Fe II, measured in Fourier transform spectra of a Penning discharge lamp and a hollow cathode lamp. The transition wavelengths span the interval between 1600 and 2850 Å. Absolute oscillator strengths ( f-values) have been derived by combining the BFs with experimental radiative lifetimes recently reported in the literature. Theoretical f-values have been calculated using configuration interaction wavefunctions. The new experimental and theoretical f-values are compared with data available in the literature and in databases. The strongest lines measured belong to the UV 8 multiplet of Fe II, which has one ground state transition appearing as a prominent feature at 1608 Å in interstellar spectra. The line is accompanied by a satellite at 1611 Å due to a level mixing, which is discussed in the paper.

- Relative partial cross sections have been measured following photoexcitation of atomic chlorine near the Cl 2p and Cl 1s ionization thresholds. In addition, Breit-Pauli R-matrix calculations have been carried out in the region of the 2p thresholds, and the results are compared with experiment. Owing to angular-momentum considerations, it was found that the resonances associated with the higher 2p(-1) thresholds should be significantly wider than the lower ones, and this is borne out in both the experimental and the theoretical results. It is shown that a large number of resonance series contribute to the cross section, which make it difficult to untangle, and suggestions for further work to better understand the spectra are presented.

- The nucleus Te114 has been studied in heavy-ion -ray spectroscopy experiments performed with the early implementation of the GAMMASPHERE multidetector array. Three rotational intruder bands have been observed up to high spins. The yrast band, involving the 4p2h (h11/2)2(g7/2)2(g9/2)-2 proton configuration, reaches I=48Latin small letter h with stroke at an excitation energy of 30.3 MeV, the highest observed spin connected by rays in this mass region. The band properties are interpreted in the framework of smooth band termination.
